Hello, I am hoping that someone can assist me here. I am using Veritas
3.2p2 on sol8 with latest patch cluster.
I am creating 20 volumes across 5 a5200's. 2 disks per array (front and
back) down each array.. On each stripe set there are 2 volumes. IE:
vol1=af1,ar1,bf1,br1,cf1,cr1,df1,dr1,ef1,er1
vol2=af1,ar1,bf1,br1,cf1,cr1,df1,dr1,ef1,er1
I have created 19 volumes thus far with no problems, however the last one
(Volume 18) is giving me a weird error.. We are running vxvm2.2p2 and
here is the script that i've used (truncated to just vol 17 and 18 as they
are the same disks.. Followed by the error i get when running (not vol17
is created, vol18 errors)
# ./create
vxvm:vxassist: ERROR: Cannot allocate space for 284483584 block volume
Why does it give me this error when the previous command just told me this
is the size it can create.. Also why would it fail on this one and the
other 19 be fine?
Thank you in advance for any assistance.
